Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Few studies have shown that host interleukin-28B (IL28B) genetic polymorphisms are associated with insulin resistance in patients with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. However, the clinical relevance of this relationship is unclear. AIMS: We examined the association between IL28B genotype for rs12980275 and risk of type 2 diabetes and diabetes-related complications. METHODS: We used a...
